Antonio Conte was heavily criticised for the six changes he made against Huddersfield on Wednesday night with the decision to drop Chelsea's star man Eden Hazard to the bench the most puzzling.

There seems to be no chance of a repeat of that this weekend when the Blues make the trip to Newcastle United, with the Belgian set to come back into the starting XI.

Olivier Giroud was another that was put on the bench as well, however Alvaro Morata once again failed to make an impression when given the chance, meaning that the Frenchman will be favourite to start on Sunday and in the FA Cup final.

Chelsea need a victory at St James' Park to have any chance of making next season's Champions League, but the result will still not be good enough if Liverpool manage to secure a point against Brighton & Hove Albion at Anfield at the weekend.
